Abstract

L'invention concerne un véhicule aérien sans pilote (UAV) léger et miniaturisé pouvant tenir dans la main tendue d'un utilisateur pour le décollage et l'atterrissage de l'UAV. L'UAV comprend un corps creux semi-toroïdal ou sensiblement toroïdal qui définit un conduit. L'UAV comprend en outre un moteur pour faire tourner un ventilateur qui dirige l'air à l'intérieur et à l'extérieur du conduit, ce qui permet à l'UAV de voler. L'UAV comprend un système de commande de vol qui comprend au moins deux surfaces de commande de vol qui peuvent modifier l'air dirigé lorsqu'il s'écoule dans le conduit pour commander le roulis et le tangage et facultativement le lacet de l'UAV pendant le vol. Le système de commande de vol peut être commandé par un contrôleur de microprocesseur. L'UAV comprend en outre une charge utile, au moins une unité d'émission et de réception sans fil.
